Felt Bicycles

A TeXtreme fabric top layer on a Felt Virtue FRD mountain bike frame not only gives a nice checkerboard appearance, but it resists stresses from all angles. It also sandwiches layers of unidirectional fabric between itself and a similar TexTreme sheet to form the bottom layer that prevents unidirectional fibers from imploding inward in the case of a hard impact.
